The Tristano di Robilant exhibition curated by Elisa Schaar for the Venice Glass Week 2020 at Palazzo Polignac.
Composed of a group of seven glass sculptures made in Murano with the collaboration of the master glassmaker Andrea Zilio.
The title of the exhibition, taken from Marcel Proust, refers to a window in Venice that arouses in him strong emotional memories of both the city and his beloved mother.
The transparent glass sculptures - like window prisms - obliquely pay homage to the rich literary and musical history of Palazzo Polignac and, on a more personal level, evoke memories of a summer spent there as a boy in 1976.
